Friday Flowers


Today's Friday Flower picture is of our first Iris of the year. This poor yellow Iris didn't fair well with a week of rain. The purple Iris aren't even showing blooms yet. While Mama likes the yellow, purple are her favorite. She's collected different types from friends, family, and local garden club sales. Hers have spread and she's been able to pass them on to various family members.


We are looking forward to the Hostas. They make for great shade and places to stalk watch the various creatures that visit the yard.

    1. Dog Dad is not going to be pleased. Now Mama is going to be obsessed with locating a black iris to add to the yard. He thought she was done. :)
